INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
THIS HUMIDIFIER
When using electrical appliances, basic
precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and
injury to persons, including the following:
1. The humidifier should always be placed on a
firm, flat, waterproof surface at least four feet
(1.2 m) away from bedside, twelve inches
(30 cm) from the wall, and out of reach of
patients, children and pets.
2. Be sure the humidifier is in a stable position
and the power cord is away from heated
surfaces and out of the way to prevent the
humidifier from being tipped over.
3. Before using the humidifier extend the cord
and inspect for any signs of damage. Do not
use the unit if the cord has been damaged.
4. The humidifier has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other) as a safety feature.
This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt
to defeat this safety feature.
